Change Log

Feburary 28, 2018 Firmware 1.8

  • Lynx recommends doing a Restore Defaults after a firmware update.  Function Menu > About > Select > OK.

November 9, 2017 Firmware 1.7

  • Lynx recommends doing a Restore Defaults after a firmware update.  Function Menu > About > Select > OK.
  • For Aurora(n)-16 USB only: To Digital Out source for USB Play are channels 1-16 instead of just after the analog channels.
  • Added the ability to update LT-HD firmware from the SD card.
  • Added support for LM-DIG board in UI. If LM-DIG board is installed in SLOT 4 (under LSlot connector) this will add 16-channels of AES/EBU.  Please note the LSlot boards have a maximum of 32-channels, so an Aurora(n) with 24-channels of analog i/o and an LM-DIG will exceed the maximum channels that can be routed to the LSlot board.  The Routing Menu allows the user to select having either the Analog channels first, or the Digital channels first to accommodate this.
  • Phones Source: Mixing and individual input volume control are now possible for the phones source.  Please see Section 6.3 of the Aurora(n) User Manual for more information.
  • Phones Source: If SD Card is not installed, SD Play channels are no longer shown.
  • Phones Source: If LSlot (Thunderbolt/USB/Dante/HD) is not present or not connected, LSlot Play channels are no longer shown.
  • Test Tone: Added the ability to send test tone to the LSlot (Thunderbolt/USB/Dante/HD) outputs, to aid in testing computer routing and connection issues.
